Clip 'n' Save for Tuesday night — Of course, we won't know winners right away after polls have closed, but this in the order in which polls will close, by state, and the Electoral College votes for each state. "swing" states are bolded, states that ought to be safe for Obama are blue:
At 7 pm EST, polls will close in these states:
- Georgia 16
- Indiana 11
- Kentucky 8
- South Carolina 9
- Vermont 3
- Virginia 13
If Virginia is called for President Obama, Romney's shot at 270 electoral college votes will already be remote.
7:30 pm EST:
- North Carolina 15
- Ohio 18
- West Virginia 5
Some are still calling North Carolina a "battleground" state, but the chances the President will win there are remote, and I'm assuming Romney will win North Carolina. The President is favored to win Ohio, but if he loses, and Mittens has Virginia at this point, we may be in for a grim night.
8 pm EST:
- Alabama 9
- Connecticut 7
- Delaware 3
- Florida 29
- Illinois 20
- Maine 4
- Maryland 10
- Massachusetts 11
- Michigan 16
- Mississippi 6
- Missouri 10
- New Hampshire 4
- New Jersey 14
- Oklahoma 7
- Pennsylvania 20
- Rhode Island 4
- Tennessee 11
- Washington, DC 3
Mittens is still trying to win Pennsylvania, but Nate Silver says there's a 97.3 percent chance of an Obama win. A Romney win there would be a huge upset.
New Hampshire is on the edge of being safe for Obama, but not quite.
I keep wanting to call Florida the "silver tuna." Mitt pretty much has to win Florida if he's going to get to 270.
So by 8 pm, we'll be chewing our nails and waiting for the networks to call Virginia, Ohio, and Florida. If Romney wins all three of those, he has a real shot at winning the election. If he loses any of them, he probably won't. If he loses Florida, especially, it's probably out of reach for him. He'd have to pull off a major upset in one or two "big states," like Pennsylvania, to make up for it.
If by chance Obama wins all three of those, we can go to bed on time.
8:30 pm EST
- Arkansas 6
9:00 pm EST
- Arizona 11
- Colorado 9
- Kansas 6
- Louisiana 8
- Minnesota 10
- Nebraska 5
- New Mexico 5
- New York 29
- South Dakota 3
- Texas 38
- Wisconsin 10
- Wyoming 3
Some pundits are still talking about Wisconsin and Michigan as if they were still up for grabs, but Nate Silver has chances of an Obama win above 90 percent for both states.
By 9:30 or so we may know whether Colorado will matter, either way. If Mitt has Florida and most of the other battleground states, Colorado may help him. If not, it won't matter. Of course, we may not know anything yet.
10 pm EST:
- Iowa 6
- Montana 3
- Nevada 6
- Utah 6
Iowa and Nevada are both "likely" states for Obama.
11 pm EST:
- California 55
- Hawaii 4
- Idaho 4
- North Dakota 3
- Oregon 7
- Washington 12
If everything is going as expected, the West Coast will nail it down before midnight, I hope.
1 am EST:
- Alaska 3
Now, what are the chances a "problem" state like Ohio or Florida will hold everything up by demanding a recount? The good news is that President Obama ought to be able to get to 270 votes without Florida and Ohio, and even without Florida, Ohio, and Virginia, which are the most likely states to hang everything up, IMO. To do that he would need all of the "blue" states above plus Colorado, Iowa, Nevada and New Hampshire, but he's probably going to get them. If President Obama clearly wins either Ohio or Virginia, then barring some upset of a major blue state, Florida won't matter.
My point here is that some critical states with earlier poll closing times are probably going to tell us where the wind is blowing, so to speak.
7:31 Ohio and North Carolina too close to call.

It's hard to find the perfect date-night makeup – red lipstick may look amazing, but it's not exactly conducive to eating a meal – it's bound to rub off at some point. Fortunately, "Girls" star Allison Williams has found the perfect balance: nude lips and shimmery shadow! Here's how to copy the look:
1. Begin by applying black eyeliner to the rims of your eyes, making sure not to neglect your water line. Then, use a shimmery bronze- or copper-colored eyeshadow to coat your lids. You can also apply a beige- or taupe-hue near your eyebrows and tear ducts to really make your eyes pop.
2. Because you'll be rocking this look at night, make sure to load up on the mascara – black, not brown – or use false eyelashes if you're feeling particularly bold. You can also try layering two different types of mascara (one for curling and one for lengthening) to pump up your lashes.
3. Finish off the perfect date-night look with the perfect date-night gloss! You don't want your lips to be totally bare, but you can get the effect of nude lips by swiping on some subtly pink gloss.

Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer on Yahoo Talks: We're Still Waiting for Carol
Microsoft CEO (MSFT) Steve Ballmer on a potential Yahoo (YHOO) search deal last month: "Blah, blah, blah." Steve Ballmer on a potential Yahoo search deal this morning: Pretty much the same thing.
Ballmer was a little more expansive today, during his Q&A with BusinessWeek editor Stephen Adler at the McGraw-Hill media conference. But it's pretty much what he's been saying for several months: We'd like to combine our search business with Yahoo's, but we can live without it. And when new Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz is ready to talk to us about it, she knows where to find us.
Here are the relevant bits from my liveblog of the chat, which just ended. Anything that isn't in quotes is a paraphrase:
Adler: What's up with Yahoo talks?
Ballmer: Principles first: "Whether or not there's a partnership to be had with Yahoo, we think our own innovation… it's not about Yahoo's technology. It's really about getting the pooled volume, because you actually can improve your product faster if you have more users." If you have more advertisers, you can improve the product as well. "There are returns to scale. And putting the scale together is valuable."
"With that as context, we're largely on the same strategy, with or without a partnership with Yahoo." I've talked with Carol briefly, over the phone. "I'm sure when it's appropriate, we'll have a chance to sit down and talk." I've known her for years. She's straightforward and friendly "and when she's ready, we'll have that type of discussion. Whether a deal gets done or not, who knows." People at our two companies talk all the time.
Adler: Will there be a deal?
Ballmer: "There are a lot of things that are fairly compelling economically in trying to put our two search efforts together in a partnership." I thought that last year, and "I got bailed out of this economy by Yahoo on that". [Laughs].
Other highlights: Ballmer reiterated that neither he nor nor anyone in his family owns anything made by Apple (AAPL), but he conceded that Steve Jobs and company have done pretty well with their iPod/iTunes products. He still insists, however, that Microsoft is better positioned than Apple in the smartphone market.
And while Ballmer also acknowledged that Google (GOOG) has run away with the search market so far, he seemed less worried about its attempts to undermine Microsoft's Office franchise with its free and low-cost Web-based software.
And Ballmer professed to be largely disinterested in the proposed IBM (IBM) and Sun (JAVA) tie-up, except to argue that he would be glad to see a competitor bogged down with post-merger headaches: ""I think it gives me a year or two where they're digesting it. I relish that year."
Here are excerpts from the event, and here's my on-the-fly transcript.

- What Is iWork, Anyway?
- A Flair for Presentation: Keynote 2
- Using Pages Instead of Word?
- The Bottom Line
- Tip Sheet
2005 is looking to be a banner year for Apple. The iPod is selling in the millions; iTunes is set to break the one-billionth downloaded song by the fall; and Macs are selling like they have never sold before. Yes, sir, things are looking good. What is coming to be called the "halo effect" of people buying Macs because they purchased an iPod is encouraging stronger innovation and sales in software. But one of the reasons why people buy a computer is to help organize their digital life. Part of that life is work, and Apple thinks it has another winner with a new productivity package called iWork.
What Is iWork, Anyway?
Office suits and products are not new to Apple. Over the years they have dabbled with a number of products, but each time Apple was not able to deliver products that customers wanted. Microsoft and other companies, such as Lotus, were able to displace Apple's own software. Has that changed with iWork?
Two products, Pages and Keynote 2, form the new productivity suit from Apple dubbed iWork, which is designed for office workers who want to give their paper work a little more flair. Pages is a word processing package, and Keynote 2 is a presentation software package.
It is almost impossible to review these two products without having to cast an eye at the competition. In this case, here are the three products that compete heavily in the office productivity space:
- Microsoft Office
- Open Source project Open Office
- Corel WordPerfect
Apple has tried to not "overbloat" Pages and Keynote with hundreds of features that are seldom if ever used. (When did you last construct a form and connect it to a database in Word?) The focus is on keeping the products lean and mean. Get in, get what you need done, get out, and make it look cooler than all heck.
What Apple has done is to focus on what it is good at: cool. Both Keynote and Pages come with tools that claim that even the visually impaired can make cool, beautiful, and stunning presentations and documents. Keynote uses themes, and Pages uses templates. But, is cool enough to buy this product?

The Great Wall of China. A science lab. A subway. A hamster wheel. Before you guess the riddle, we'll go ahead and remove the idea that these places hosted Charlie Sheen's last NYE bash. Actually, these locations make up fashion's most outrageous, over-the-top, out-of-bounds catwalks of all time. While the rest of fashion world simply opts for the standard, long-runway configuration, there's a small selection of visionary designers equipped with illusions (or delusions?) of grandeur.
From Fendi to Chanel, the typical fashion-show runways have had a makeover that only wildly brilliant designers would dare to dream. (Mr. Lagerfeld, we're looking at you.) Take a cruise down memory lane for the 10 craziest catwalks of all time.
Death-Defying Heights — Naomi Campbell was once quoted as saying that Alexander McQueen fashion shows are the most terrifying yet the most fun experiences. She must have been referring to his spring '00 collection. Eschewing the conventional runway, he lined the catwalk with metal spikes and nails, forcing his models to be lifted above the stage, gracefully floating through the air above stunned showgoers' heads. It was dark, ominous, and a wee bit dangerous, but, hey, at least the models didn't have to walk in those infamous armadillo heels. Now that's terrifying.
History Lesson — In October '07, fashion mastermind Karl Lagerfeld's collection for Fendi needed a dramatic backdrop, and the only place he deemed appropriate was The Great Wall of China. Inviting 500 guests from around the world and costing a jaw-dropping $10 million to produce, Lagerfeld pulled off what has to be arguably the most extravagant, most expensive, most impressive catwalk of all time.
Guiness Book Record Holder — The "walk a mile in their shoes" phrase has a whole new meaning, because this has to be the most exhausting runway on the list. During Copenhagen Fashion Week in 2010, a monstrous catwalk spanning one-mile long was manufactured to hold the record as "The World's Greatest Catwalk." Erected in the city center along the pedestrian street, Strøget, Helena Christensen, along with 250 other models, walked the neon-pink catwalk in sky-high stilettos and sporting designs from roughly 500 different Scandinavian brands. For the models' sake, we're hoping they at least had rehydration stations along the way.
Gold Medalist — Riddled with a mad case of Olympic fever, Dutch designer Joline Jolink had a slight obsession with legendary Olympian Florence Griffith-Joyner, aka Flo-Jo...so much so that her spring '09 show showcased her fascination with the running champion. The only reasonable option was to stage the show in the old Olympic Stadium in Amsterdam…on the 100-meter track. The sportswear collection, worn by models as they sashayed down the track, paid tribute to the flamboyant and feminine style of the famous sprinter — minus the mile-long nails and one-legged lace tights.
Enter Sandman — The designer: Pierre Cardin. The setting: Dunhuang Desert in China. The inspiration: Marco Polo. It took the dunes of the Whistling Sand Mountain in Dunhuang, China for famed French designer Pierre Cardin to truly express the sentiment of his spring '08 show — a traveler arriving in a faraway Eastern land, or more specifically, how Cardin envisioned Mr. Polo would travel. The fantasy story behind the 200-dress collection was just as imaginative as the exotic locale. Oh, and did we mention the show ended with a model in a wedding gown traveling by camel?
Death Becomes Her — Registering at 9.9 out of 10 on the creepy scale, the only thing to explain Thom Browne's fall '12 show is confirmation that Tim Burton produced it. Throwing out the idea of a traditional presentation, Browne chose for his models to lie in dark wood coffins dressed in sleek, wool gray suits, while another set of models wandered somberly in and out of the coffin layout, as if in mourning. But, really, they shouldn't feel too bad for them: According to the speech given before the start of the show, they "died" the honorable way — for fashion.
Let's Get Physical — Danish designer, Henrik Vibskov, might not be as universally known as, say, Valentino, but in terms of dominating the kooky, off-the-wall, seriously strange category, he sits pretty in the top five for the most WTF? moments on a runway. At Copenhagen Fashion Week in '09, he tossed aside the classic catwalk and presented his collection on black-and-white striped, life-sized spinning hamster wheels, making the models work out, in heels and all. A scene reminiscent of the Twilight Zone, Vibskov wasn't even fazed when a few models fell off the track after trying to keep up pace on the high-speed wheels. Apparently, they didn't get the memo that beauty is pain.
Boardwalk Empire — Let's not pretend we're shocked that Mr. Lagerfeld is featured twice on this list. The prolific designer's eccentricity has created some seriously intriguing shows. Case in point, the Chanel cruise '10 collection in Venice. Set at sunset, the show's audience sat in deck chairs, as models, embodying a modern day Marchesa Casati, sauntered down a boardwalk of the Excelsior Hotel along the Lido — a poetically whimsical setting for a poetically whimsical designer. And here we thought a show at the Grand Palais in Paris had the most amazing backdrop.
Great Escalations — Talk about making an entrance! For their fall '12 show, design duo Humberto Leon and Carol Lim of Kenzo transformed a university science lab building into a runway of epic proportions. Models entering the show wound their way down several escalators and class hallways before making their way to the remaining catwalk. The theatrical zigzagging, kicked off by the stunning Karlie Kloss, left showgoers tipping their hats in admiration and praise to the relatively new design team. Note to Leon and Lim, we're eagerly anticipating September's show!
The Sexiest Morning Commute — Didn't get an invite to Fashion Week? That's okay. If you live in Berlin, you would attend a show even if you didn't expect to. During Berlin Fashion Week, U-Bahn subway commuters are treated to fashion shows featuring up-and-coming designers, as models strut their stuff through the train cars. And the last stop on the fashion train is an underground rock-'n'-roll club. Perhaps that 10 a.m. conference call can be postponed a few hours.

very easy to make..only thing I do differently is add the candies or nuts after the maker is done putting in freezer it keeps them crisp
Jul 8, 2012
Family loved it and it was simple.
Jul 26, 2009
I have done this for years, I think that the above commenter may have missed the step of hardening the ice cream mixture in the freezer, as after it is done in the ice cream maker it is a rather thick slushy mixture. My family makes this often, using different candies each time. FYI, Twix bars and pretzels are a yummy mixture too. I find that with the larger batches I need to let it harden up overnight in my freezer.
Jul 18, 2009
This recipe did not work for me. It never turned into ice cream. It only became an icy slush. I was not happy because I spent so much money on the half-and-half but the family would not let me dump it. They drank it and loved it. Only to make me feel better I think. Not sure if I will try again. Let me know if it worked for you.

EPPING -- It seems to happen when it's dead quiet.
sound of footsteps crossing the creaky wooden floors. Doors opening and
closing. A person whispering. Objects being tossed into the air.
hear things all the time. I expect it now," said Town Administrator
Gregory Dodge, who wonders if the Epping Town Hall is haunted.
And he's not the only one.
pen once flew out of nowhere and landed on the desk of town clerk
administrative assistant Michele Murphy. She thought a co-worker had
thrown it at her, but she hadn't.
"There was nobody there," she said.
Detective Marc Turner and other officers often heard footsteps late at
night when the police department was located in the town hall's
basement, until it moved in 2001.
"You could hear the footsteps.
You'd go up there and search the building and nothing. That happened on
many occasions," Turner said.
After so many strange occurrences
experienced at the town hall over the years, officials say it may be
time to let a professional ghost hunter in to confirm what many already
"There are strange happenings there and selectmen feel
that perhaps it's time to find out just how strange the happenings are,"
said Selectman Karen Falcone, board chairman.
Falcone has also heard the footsteps and doors opening and closing when no one's around.
"The selectmen do feel there are some unanswered questions that we would love to explore," she said.
researching the history of the town hall built in the late 1800s,
officials were able to confirm one death that occurred there. The town
hall's janitor, Herman Lussier, fell to his death in 1940 after losing
his balance while feeding pigeons from the clock tower.
who was the town's police chief for many years before becoming town
administrator last year, said he often hears the noises when he's alone
in his office on the main floor after hours.
Last year he called
the police to check things out after hearing the footsteps when he was
alone in the building. Officers took a look, but found nothing.
He's also heard the sound of someone whispering.

out I leave," he said. "There's just something weird."
When work
began on the installation of an elevator and other renovations at the
town hall a few months ago, Joyce Blanchard, the selectmen's
administrative assistant, expected the activity to pick up.
"I figured that would start things up more, but it hasn't," she said.
believe the noises will be heard again once the construction work is
finished, but not everyone is convinced there's a ghost lurking.
Joy True, curator of the Epping Historical Society, said she's heard nothing about the town hall being haunted.
"The town hall has bats. It's always had bats, but no ghosts," she said.
While she believes spirits exist, True said, "It doesn't mean that the town hall is haunted with spirits."

Amenorrhea is a menstrual condition characterized by absent menstrual periods for more than 3 monthly menstrual cycles. Amenorrhea may be classified as primary or secondary:
Primary amenorrhea. From the beginning and may be lifelong. Menstruation never begins at puberty.
Secondary amenorrhea. Due to some physical cause and usually of later onset. A condition in which menstrual periods that were at 1 time normal and regular become increasingly abnormal and irregular or absent.
There are several possible causes of amenorrhea, including:
Pregnancy. Females no longer ovulate when they are pregnant. Menstruation ceases temporarily.
Ovulation abnormality. Ovulation abnormalities are usually the cause of very irregular or frequently missed menstrual periods.
Birth defect, anatomical abnormality, or other medical condition. If a young woman has not started to menstruate by age 16, a birth defect, anatomical abnormality, or other medical condition may be suspected.
Eating disorder. Females with anorexia and/or bulimia often experience amenorrhea as a result of maintaining a body weight that would be too low to sustain a pregnancy. As a result, the reproductive system "shuts down" because it is severely malnourished.
Overexercise or strenuous exercise. Many young female athletes in training experience absent menstrual cycles due to low body fat content.
Thyroid disorder. In many cases, an underactive thyroid gland or an overactive thyroid gland is responsible for the absent menstrual cycles.
Obesity. Females who are obese often experience amenorrhea as a result of excess fat cells interfering with the process of ovulation.
Pituitary adenoma. A tumor that forms in the brain that may interfere with the normal functions of the hormones. This can prevent ovulation and cause loss of periods.
Diagnosis begins with a gynecologist or other health care provider evaluating a female's medical history and a complete physical examination. This includes a pelvic examination. A diagnosis of amenorrhea can only be certain when the health care provider rules out other menstrual disorders, medical conditions, or medicines that may be causing or making the condition worse. In addition, a diagnosis of amenorrhea requires that a female miss at least 6 menstrual cycles in a row, without being pregnant. Young women who haven't had their first menstrual period by age 15 should be evaluated promptly. Making an early diagnosis and starting treatment as soon as possible is very important.
Specific treatment for amenorrhea will be determined by your adolescent's health care provider based on:
Your adolescent's age, overall health, and medical history
Extent of the condition
Cause of the condition (primary or secondary)
Your adolescent's tolerance for specific medicines, procedures, or therapies
Expectations for the course of the condition
Your adolescent's opinion or preference
Treatment for amenorrhea may include:
Progesterone supplements (hormone treatment)
Oral contraceptives (ovulation inhibitors)
Treatment of underlying cause through medicines or possibly surgery
Dietary changes (to include consuming more calories and fat)
Calcium supplementation to reduce bone loss
Vidant Health can connect you to health care professionals to help you understand your condition and guide you through the treatment process. Let's chat.

Every Saturn has problems, and most of those can be tracked, compared, and monitored to come up with a list of things to watch out for and possible solutions.
If you're shopping for a Saturn we want to to give you quick access to information that can help you make an informed buying decision. If you already own one, we want to connect you with information regarding problems you're already having and prepare you for what might come next.
Help us, help you
We're a part of the CarComplaints.com network — a series of sites that are dedicated to car owners. We don't sugar-coat things or take paid endorsements.
We offer this information, including analysis and statistical breakdowns, for free. Here are a couple ways you can keep this site running.
- If you own an Saturn, take a few minutes and tell us about it on CarComplaints.com.
- Sign up for email alerts so we can tell you when something new pops up.
- Spread the word about this site on Twitter and Facebook.
Advertising Opportunities
Advertising on the CarComplaints.com network is well-targeted, has unique benefits, and is highly successful. Read more about advertising opportunities within our network of sites.
About the Complaint Data
This site is part of the CarComplaints.com network, which generates problem graphs and data summaries based solely on owner-submitted complaints. All the complaints on this site are the first-hand accounts of real owners. This information should be used as a reference point, it's always best to seek help from a qualified professional mechanic if your problem persists.
What is PainRank?
PainRank™ is a CarComplaints.com algorithm that uses complaint data from owners (the average mileage of failures, the cost to make repairs, etc), relative complaints analysis, sales numbers, NHTSA data, & owners' own vehicle rankings to come up with a number representing how much pain a car inflicts on its owners. The higher the PainRank™ score, the more painful a car is to own (typically).
About the Recall Information
A safety recall involving an automobile can be independently conducted by the manufacturer or ordered by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Either way the manufacturer must file a public report which describes the safety-related defect or their inability to comply with a Federal motor vehicle safety standard. The report must also detail the major events that resulted in the recall determination, a description of the remedy, and a schedule for the recall.
Manufacturers are obligated to make an attempt of notifying any known owners of the recalled automobile. That means manufacturers take their own records of purchasers and merge it with current state vehicle registration information.
This site monitors and collects all of its recall information from the NHTSA.
About the Defect Investigations
The NHTSA is authorized to order manufacturers to recall and repair vehicles when the Office of Defects Investigations (ODI) indicate that they contain serious safety defects in their design, construction, or performance. Before the order can be made, ODI must investigate the defect further. Before initiating an investigation, ODI carefully reviews the body of consumer complaints and other available data to determine whether a defect trend may exist.
This site monitors and collects all of its defect investigation information from the NHTSA.
About the Technical Service Bulletins
Technical Service Bulletins, or TSBs for short, are notifications made directly by vehicle manufacturers to help automotive technicians diagnose and repair commonly reported problems. Thousands of bulletins are issued by car manufacturers every year.
These bulletins differ from recalls in that they are not considered safety or emissions issues and they usually apply only when your vehicle is in its warranty period (whereas a recall is "open" until the work has been performed). TSBs frequently (but not always) address a recurring problem and include illustrated instructions for repair, a list of the parts needed, the warranty status and the labor charge.
This site monitors and collects all of its TSB information from the NHTSA.

Answers to the most frequently asked questions
- What Are Vehicle Generations?
Generations are groups of model years where the vehicles are continuously produced, use similar engineering, and share features. Generational data is not always cut-and-dry – manufacturers might not always release generation information, some generations might last longer in different countries, and various trim levels and model variants can make the whole thing confusing. We do our best but make no guarantees about our generation data. When in doubt, we stick with data about US models.
- Why Are Some Vehicles Missing a 1st / 2nd / 3rd Generation?
You might notice that some of our data starts at generation 5, 6, etc. So what happened to the older generations? One of two things. 1. some models have been around a long time and we don't have any complaint or NHTSA data about them. 2. some new models share the same platform as existing models, so we typically tie them together. For instance, a new hybrid vehicle might be introduced during the 5th generation of its non-hybrid counterpart. We'll typically start the hybrid's generation at 5, unless it's otherwise noted.
- Where Can I Add My Car Complaint?
Someday we hope to take complaints directly on this site. Until that day, you can tell us about it on CarComplaints.com and your information will be used to help this site.

A Slight Dislike of Hierarchies
September 17, 2008 1 Comment
I developed my notion of leadership from below as a counterweight to traditional top-down leadership. Usually, leaders tell people what to do based on a position of authority within a hierarchical structure. A non-hierarchical, bottom-up leadership perspective is far from unique. However, I developed my own view, and I wrote it down. One could say it is based on my fieldwork in the US, Norway and Italy, on eclectic reading, on my experience from starting up businesses, from founding a think tank, and from having opinions about a great many things in fields where I at the outset had no reason to be particularly authoritative.
No, wait, let me give you the real impetus – I spent a year in the Norwegian Army. I recall being bossed around. I didn't like it (but I loved it when I got my NAIS medal for markmanship). My colonel once brought me to his office to say that my attitude was fine if I was a general, but not fine for a private. He then said he recognized the attitude – he had been the same way. Then he scolded me for being as dumb as him. His advice was to just do what people told me to do. To fit in. To accept decisions that were wrong because it was the right thing to do. I guess this book, Leadership from below, I mean, is my revenge.
In short, for the good part of my youth I have been an opinionated bastard, or as the euphemism goes, an intellectual of sorts. However, I have always been an ideas-to-action kind of guy. Mere speculation and endless research was never enough. This is probably why I needed a break from university (I have spent time in a few, such as NTNU, the University of Naples Federico II, University of Liege, and UC Berkeley). Life as a researcher was too monotonous. I wanted more. I wanted to make an impact. Leadership from below starts there – with the wish to make an impact.
I will give some more explanation about how my own background quite nicely demonstrates that leadership from below works in a later post.

Two drawings
The guy in the square pattern shirt I drew in Culver City over lunch break while working at Sony, about ...two years ago now? something like that. It was one of these beautiful early spring days in So Cal, perfect for lunch outside!
The other one is a self portrait attempt while in line at the dentist's (a clear art-pain connection).

Fantastic Day
And so we all headed for the Huntington Gardens... chinese new year festival awaiting for us.
Perfect day!, great light, great temperature. Following Craig's suggestion I brought marker and sketchpad. We both stopped right opposite the japanese garden area which we drew from there.

Wake up with awareness
Intention is the motivation behind everything you think, say, or do. It can influence your entire day, making it more likely that your words, actions, and responses will be more mindful. Try this practice first thing in the morning, before you do anything else.
Waking up with awareness
1. Shortly after you wake up, sit up in bed or in a chair nearby. With a straight spine, close your eyes. Pay attention to how your body feels.
2. Take three long, deep, breaths — in through your nose and out your mouth. Then let your breath settle into its own rhythm, and simply follow it in and out. Notice the rise and fall of your chest and belly.
3. Silently ask yourself, "What's my intention for today?"
You can follow with these questions to help find an answer:
- How can I show up at work, or with my family or friends, to be the most effective and kind person I can be?
- What quality do I want to strengthen?
- How can I take better care of myself?
- How can I be kinder to others and to myself?
- Where can I feel more connected and fulfilled?
4. Set your intention for the day. For example, "Today, I'll be kind to myself, be patient with others, give generously, and stay grounded." "Today I'll work hard and stay focused." "Today I'll have fun and eat well." Add anything else that's important to you.
5. Throughout the day, check in with yourself. Pause, take a breath, and remember your intention. Notice how the quality of your communication, relationships, and mood shifts.

A collection of scholarly works about individual liberty and free markets. A project of Liberty Fund, Inc.
The appearance of Montesquieu's Spirit of Laws in 1748 provoked a debate which has raged ever since. Montesquieu anaysed different forms of government, the impact of climate on social organization, advocated the separation of powers as a brake on the power of the monarch, and espoused unorthodox religious views (thus getting his book placed on the Index in 1751). Gathered here are some of the replies to the arguments first put forward in 1748.

Democrats in New Jersey sharpened their aim at Republican Gov. Chris Christie on Monday, forming special legislative committees to explore the role politics played in George Washington Bridge traffic jams last fall and announcing that the investigation has grown into an abuse of power probe.
The intensifying investigation, which threatens to undermine Christie's second term and his chances at a 2016 presidential run, revealed last week that high-ranking Christie aides and appointees were involved in ordering lane closings in September as apparent political payback that led to massive gridlock in the town of Fort Lee.
A new special Assembly committee, given subpoena power and a special counsel, will be charged with finding out how high the plot went up Christie's chain of command, said a leading state Democrat, Assembly Majority Leader Lou Greenwald.
"It is clearly an abuse of power," he said. "The question is, who abused their power and how high did it go?"
The committee will focus exclusively on the traffic jams in Fort Lee, whose mayor has said he believes the lanes were closed to punish him for not endorsing Christie. The panel will be chaired the head of the Assembly transportation committee who launched the initial investigation into the lane closings, John Wisniewski.
The state Senate announced that it planned to establish its own committee, also with subpoena power.
Christie has apologized but denied involvement. He also fired a top aide, Deputy Chief of Staff Bridget Anne Kelly, and cut ties with campaign adviser Bill Stepien, who'd been widely seen as a potential campaign manager if Christie runs for president.
Wisniewski said Monday that Kelly and Stepien could receive subpoenas soon, though he could subpoena their emails first.
The scandal has changed the tone of state politics.
Christie must figure out how to address it when he gives his State of the State address on Tuesday. His administration has not revealed what he might say, but certainly it will now have a bigger audience and announcements about tax cut plans will no longer be the most anticipated part.
The same could be true at the governor's inauguration for a second term next week, set to take place on Ellis Island. The setting is meant to showcase Christie's inclusiveness and ability to appeal to a broad swath of voters.

Yes, No, Maybe
No, I wasn't abducted by aliens yet again.
Maybe I should explore blogging from space...but then I'd have to figure out how to get there, plus I think my hair would suck in space.
Yes, I am still baking.
No, I haven't made anything new in the last 3 weeks - I'm stuck on repeat.
Maybe I should ban myself for 6 months from all old recipes and ban myself from procrastination; though I think I'll wait on that last part.
Yes, I still think of my blog every single, solitary day.
No, I do not think this wretched lack of inspiration is permanent
Maybe I shoudn't use single and solitary together - isn't that redundant and unnecessary? Isn't using both redundant and unnecessary also redundant and unnecessary?
Yes, I can't stop thinking of those muffins.
No, I don't regret introducing them to you - despite the several "I'm now in rehab, bitch!" emails.
Maybe I should start baking with iceberg lettuce as the base of all dishes. Or, anchovies.
Yes, at least I'm still twittering.
No, that is not something I do by myself, alone, in the closet, while wearing a blue wig.
Maybe I should wear a blue wig and live in a closet, but how would my natural hair breathe?
Yes, I have a most severe case of blogstipation.
No, I'm not aware of any medication for it, including Senna Tea.
Maybe I should make Grandma Iny's Prune Cake, hoping that maybe it will give me blogarrhea.
Yes, I really will try to post more often.
No, I do NOT like the bottom of my feet touched, EVER; although I do like the smell of feta and don't feel I'm eating cheese made of feet.
Maybe I shouldn't write everything that just pops into my head...
Missing you all! And yes, I do promise that NO, I will never write a yes, no, maybe post again, unless...well...maybe I shouldn't promise anything except -- I promise to never go exactly the speed limit and I will probably never use margarine to shave my legs. There, I commit.

Never use margarine for anything. That is all. Lack of inspiration hits us all, and you might as well chill out doing other things rather than staring at the screen, unable to type and silently hating your own creation (um, could be talking about myself here). Take care :)

Oi you, i have missed you terribly. Glad to you hear you're still baking despite the massive blogstipation. I highly recommend a Molton Brown bath to help ;) actually. it's just cos i had an uber long Molton Brown shower and feel that's one of the best ways to get rid of mental blocks, etc.
sending you my love

Yes make the cake! I vote for blogarrhea!!! And of course you should never shave with margarine! I allways only use European butter!
- March 8, 2009 at 3:12 PM
Hilarious! And I cut go straight to copy and paste and use this post to revive my blog too - as if you read my mind (I am not that funny though - so great job!).
- March 8, 2009 at 4:09 PM
It's almost worth having you not blog, because your comeback blogs are freakin' AWESOME! But then I miss you when you're gone, which is not awesome.
I don't like feta, but I do eat nori, which smells like the tide.

Ha! You poked your head in and said, "What's up bitches?!" Awesome.
I'm adding blogstipation to my list of new terms. Can't I just add these to Wiki or something? I'm afraid I'll forget. I'll figure it out and coin this and give you the blame, I mean fame for it.

Dennis's love of barbecue lead him to the creation of Dennis' Key Lime Barbecue Sauce. Dennis' Key Lime Barbecue Sauce is a blend of natural Florida flavors combined with the traditional sauce ingredients. We love Reva Foods sauces because they are all natural, and are either low or reduced sodium with no fat, and no MSG added. Dennis was kind enough to allow us to reprint one of his recipes and we are excited about the opportunity to bring his recipe for Baked Pork Tenderloin with Key Lime Glaze to BBQ Pro Shop, just another great thing to try Dennis' Key Lime Barbecue Sauce.
Now this recipe calls for it to be done in the oven, which is legal, but anything that can be done in the oven, can be done over indirect heat or on a smoker to qualify as true BBQ. In order to do this, you will need the following ingredients:
(4) Pork tenderloins, remove all white skin and membranes (Around 4 poundsl)
2 Cups Dennis' Key Lime BBQ Sauce
Kosher Salt & Cracked Black Pepper
2 Tablespoons of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
• Rub the pork liberally with the Kosher Salt & Cracked Black Pepper
• Preheat a large griddle or sauté pan on high heat for a 1 minute, then add the olive oil
• On all sides, sear the pork tenderloins until nicely browned
• Put the tenderloins in the ovens to roast for about 15 minutes
• Brush the tenderloins liberally with Dennis' Key Lime BBQ Sauce.
• Let tenderloins roast for another 5-7 minutes, keep an eye on them.
• Brush the meat a second time with Dennis' Key Lime BBQ Sauce and cook for another 3-4 minutes or when your instant-read thermometer reads 140-145 degrees, depending on how you like your pork.
• Let the tenderloins rest for about 10 minutes and then slice into 1/2″ thick chunks and serve.
Serves 8
This recipe is published with permission from Reva Foods LLC. Thank you Dennis and Kathy!

We have avoided Armageddon, at least for now. The cost to the US taxpayer has been a few trillion. Some in the media are loudly announcing the end of the recession. But we are not out of the woods yet. There are a few more bumps in the road. Actually, some of them are quite steep hills. As big as the subprime problem? Maybe.
When asked a few weeks ago what was my biggest short-term concern, I quickly replied, 'European banks have the potential to create significant risk for the entire worldwide system.' This week we will glance "over the pond" to see what gives me cause for concern. Then we briefly look at a few of the bumps I mentioned, which are likely to stretch out any recovery, and maybe even dip us back into recession.

HARRIS — Catskill Regional Medical Center issued a warning Tuesday that some patients might have been exposed to HIV and hepatitis by the shared use of insulin injection pens.
HARRIS — Catskill Regional Medical Center issued a warning Tuesday that some patients might have been exposed to HIV and hepatitis by the shared use of insulin injection pens.
The Harris hospital alerted patients in a news release that insulin pens might have been reused on more than one patient between 2007 and May 2013.
"While CRMC is not aware of any contamination between patients, as a precautionary measure CRMC is recommending that those patients be tested for hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV," the news release said.
Hospital spokesman Rob Lee said the issue was uncovered during "routine nursing education on the use of insulin pens."
Lee said the hospital is investigating to determine how many patients might have exposed. Affected patients will be notified by letter.
An insulin pen is designed to be used several times but should never be used on more than one patient, according to a 2012 alert from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Although a new needle is used on each injection, blood can be regurgitated into the insulin cartridge, creating a risk that a pathogen can be transmitted from one patient to another.
The shared use of insulin pens caused a health scare at two western New York hospitals this winter.
The Buffalo News reported that 700 patients at Buffalo Veterans Hospital could have been exposed. Olean General Hospital also alerted people that 1,915 people might have been exposed since 2009.
Three patients filed a lawsuit against Olean claiming to have contracted hepatitis but the hospital is denying those patients contracted hepatitis through the pens, according to the Buffalo News report. Officials described the risk of transmission as low.
In 2009 the Food and Drug Administration issued a reminder to health care professionals to use the pens on only one patient after a report that patients were exposed at a Texas hospital.
CRMC patients are urged to call 800-277-4221 to arrange a blood test or ask questions.

My child goes from zero to 60. Just a few short months ago, we were worried that she wasn't rolling over. Today I had to drag her off the third step of our staircase and then block off the entire area to keep her away from it.
Now that she's a climbing somebody, we can't keep her from pulling up on everything and anything: your pants leg, a pillow hanging over the edge of the couch, the couch itself, the ottoman, the entertainment center, the laptop sitting on its side, her toy box, the dog. She wants UP ... now.
It's cute to see her little body stretched out like a real girl. She even crawls like a big girl instead of an army recruit at basic training.
Of course, to keep us grounded, there are still some things she isn't too interested in, such as holding her own cup or bottle. She'll hold them, but only if you force her and only until she's tired of it.
To celebrate her milestones, I'm finishing up her stage 2 foods and moving on to stage 3. I'm also going to begin feeding her from the table with everyone else. To do this, we'll have to find a highchair, but that shouldn't be too incredibly difficult.
Stay tuned to tomorrow when you'll get to see Bella in all her action via video post!
Sassy Bella

NHL Game Night: 12-28-13 Canadiens at LightningSubmitted by pete on December 28, 2013 - 22:43
Rusty Lightning salvage a point coming off the break.
Ben Bishop allowed 1 goal on 21 shots before allowing 1 of 2 shooters to convert for the SO loss.
First Period
Second Period
5:15 MTL Plekanec (13), (Gionta, Moen)
11:43 TB St Louis (17), (Johnson, Palat)
Third Period
MTL- Eller
Bishop and Ondrej Palat were the game's second and third stars.
It was a hangover from the holiday break, plain and simple. The team's legs were there but the timing/passing weren't. It was an awful showing for the first 30 minutes before the timing started coming back and they nearly stole 2 points with goaltending and some luck (posts). As it is, they stole an insurance point and move on to the Rangers tomorrow night.
Radko Gudas was +1 with 2 penalty minutes, 2 shots, 6 hits, and 1 blocked shot in 23:00. Gudas played huge minutes with both Salo and Brewer out. The D did hold Montreal to 21 shots although their chances were higher than that reflects.
Mark Barberio had 1 shot in 13:27. Dangerous in the O zone. Dangerous in the D zone.
Tyler Johnson had a helper and was +1 in 20:51. He was 53% on draws.
Alex Killorn was -1 with 2 shots and 1 hit in 16:01. His timing was clearly off early scuffing some good chances and he was on the wrong side of Plekanec driving the net on Montreal's goal.
Palat had a helper and was +1 with 3 shots, 1 hit, and 1 blocked shot. With all due respect to the SunSports crew that called Palat's star selection a surprise: you're blind. Palat was everywhere. 3 brilliant cross ice feeds for chances. Drawing 2 penalties. Sweeping a potential goal out of danger. Backchecking to defuse at least a couple other chances. Tonight the term "Ondrejpresent" was coined for good reason. He was a plus player for all 200 feet of the rink tonight.
J.P. Cote was -1 with 2 penalty minutes, 2 hits, and 2 blocked shots in 10:43. They clearly hid him against a superior skating Montreal team.
J.T. Brown had 2 shots and 1 hit in 16:17. He creates greasy goal opportunities. Reliably.
Dmitry Korobov had 3 hits in 8:08. His skating was exposed by Montreal creating a 2-on-1 and hemming the Lightning in a majority of the shifts Korobov was out.
Nikita Kucherov had 1 shot in 16:58. He had a partial breakaway where he drew a penalty that should've been a penalty shot and another breakaway where he lost control of the puck going in. If he converted half of the breakaway chances he's had he'd be sitting on 4-5 more goals.
Andrej Sustr had 1 shot, 2 hits, and 3 blocked shots in 18:05. I thought he played with a little more snarl as the game went on, realizing he can't keep up with Montreal's speed, so pin and seal with a little nasty.
Tonight was game 38, so we're fast approaching graduation from prospect status for several of these players. Not that I'm complaining, but there were 10 (10!) prospects in the lineup tonight. Amazing.

NHL Game Night: 12-23-13 Lightning at PanthersSubmitted by pete on December 23, 2013 - 22:53
Now THAT was a holiday treat!
Ben Bishop allowed 1 goal on 29 shots for the victory. He got the 3 goal lead, made a flurry of key stops toward the end of the Second Period, and the team got to throw it in cruise control the rest of the way. That's how you show the killer instinct to dispose of an inferior team.
First Period
18:56 FLA Bergenheim (5), (Barkov)(PP)
19:15 TB Killorn (9), (Filppula, Hedman)
Second Period
3:22 TB Johnson (9), (Hedman, St Louis)
8:01 TB Filppula (13), (Purcell, St Louis)(PP)
12:07 TB St Louis (16), (Palat)
Third Period
3:40 TB Brown (3), (Kucherov, Cote)
13:36 TB Brown (4), (Kucherov, Hedman)
Martin St. Louis, Valtteri Filppula, and Ben Bishop were the game's three stars.
This was billed as a clash of two of the hottest teams of the Eastern Conference. The Panthers saw this as an opportunity to make a statement in the last game before the holiday break in front of their home fans (all 3 of them). They made a statement all right. After a fairly even First Period the Lightning started to take territorial control in the Second Period, got a greasy goal to take the lead and the Panthers reacted to the slightest bit of adversity by absolutely dissolving. Undisciplined, stupid play helped the Lightning get a 3 goal lead at the end of the period, and they rewarded the 2 fans they had that stuck around for the final frame by absolutely laying down in the Third Period. They quit. No effort. Nil. Nada. Lightning fans, if you ever get to feeling down on your team, take a look downstate at that dumpster fire in Sunrise. Be glad you don't have to root for that bunch of lazy, unprofessional quitters.
The Lightning check into the holiday break having already secured the minimum 12 points they want from this 4th 10-game segment of the season. They'll get 3 games after the break to close out the segment and to try to rack up insurance points that may come in handy in January and into February. It's a fantastic spot to be in and a tribute to the guys that their record without one of the game's best players (Stamkos) is nearly identical as what their record was with Stamkos to start the year.
The victory also gives the Lightning the inaugural Governor's Cup, which can be now used to collect Bill Lindsay's tears, that I might drink of their sweet, sweet goodness.
Radko Gudas was +1 with 2 shots, 4 hits, and 1 blocked shot in 23:33. With Brewer out and Salo going down in the First Period, Gudas got the big minutes tonight.
Mark Barberio was +3 in 13:46. Two of those plusses came in garbage time in the Third Period after the Panthers chose to lay down. Again, with regard to Barberio's plus/minus, he's living a charmed life this season.
Tyler Johnson had the GWG and was +2 with 3 shots. He was also 54% on draws. He missed a second goal on a 1-time by just a dash, as well.
Alex Killorn was +1 with 2 penalty minutes, 4 shots, and 1 hit in 16:05. Killorn's goal 19 seconds after Bergenheim's gift from Carle completely negated the Panthers' momentum and set the stage for the Lightning to beat up their inner children all Second Period long.
Ondrej Palat had a helper and was +2 with 2 penalty minutes and 1 hit in 14:48. His nice feed to St. Louis on the 1-timer was almost for naught as Marty flubbed the shot, but he got just enough to put it in and get Ondrej on the scoresheet.
J.P. Cote had a helper and was +1 with 2 shots and 3 hits in 16:16. That, what, 2 assists in 3 games? They gave him #22 and he's putting up numbers like Dan Boyle. He's played mistake-free the past couple of games and he's consistently given the Lightning another big open ice hitter to go along with Gudas. As such, you've seen his ice time continue to go up with over 16 minutes tonight.
J.T. Brown had 2 goals and was +2 with 6 shots in 16:41. The Third Period, garbage time, was the Kucherov and Brownov show, with Brownov being the recipient of some great playmaking from Kucherov.
Nikita Kucherov had 2 helpers and was +2 with 2 shots in 16:04. He set up Brown's first goal with a great rush and move around the net and the second goal with an easy tap-in off a feed on a 2-on-1. In fact, it looked like he was going to be credited with Brown's first goal, but the scorekeepers realized only Kucherov shots from the high slot should count as regulation goals.
Andrej Sustr was +1 in 16:20. I'll be honest, although he hasn't made any egregious mistakes, it feels like he may be starting to hit a bit of a rookie wall. He's a slightly built guy and he's playing against guys with a lot more foot speed and upper body strength than him, and he's having a slightly rougher time keeping up 1-on-1. This break might be coming at a good time for him to rest and relax before heading out west.

NHL Game Night: 12-21-13 Hurricanes at LightningSubmitted by pete on December 21, 2013 - 22:38
Large kitchen sink eventually crushes Justin Peters.
Ben Bishop allowed 2 goals on 27 shots for the OT win. I'm shocked Carolina even had 27 shots in this one. The game seemed totally slanted, especially during the first 30 minutes. Bishop could've read the paper, had a cup of coffee, smoked a cigarette, broke into Khabi's old stash of Pedialite, and still had time to shoot dice with Chief.
First Period
4:35 CAR Tlusty (5), (Dwyer, Nash)
16:12 TB Hedman (7), (Filppula, Killorn)
Second Period
10:11 CAR Tlusty (6), (Staal, Hainsey)(SH)
Third Period
7:56 TB St Louis (15), (Hedman, Filppula)(PP)
2:16 TB Gudas (2), (Thompson)
Victor Hedman was the game's second star. He has been outstanding since returning from injury. We're 36 games into the season and he's already set a career high with 7 goals. The Lightning are starting to look like they're in good hands with two young d-men like Hedman and Gudas with, hopefully, Koekkoek on the way. For the future, the picture was fuzzy a year ago, but it's looking a lot better right now.
The Lightning did an outstanding job of putting the work in tonight to deny Carolina the 2 points. Carolina played a classic road game getting a lot of timely saves from Peters and then cashing in on their few chances when they came. Against New Jersey, the Lightning fell into the trap of making mistakes trying to open up the offense even more to try to get goals back. Here, against Carolina, they just applied their system with more and more zest. They threw the kitchen sink at Peters, a nice one too. Like, a Toto or a Kohler. Not an American Standard. Vinik buys quality. And, they did it, for the most part, without compromising their defensive structure and eventually the pressure was just too much for the Canes to take.
And now, an aside about the Filppula one-timer goal that was waved off. Folks, the NHL needs to take a look at their replay rules. Right now there's a strict standard where a puck has to clearly be over the line to be counted a goal. However, some sort of allowance for common sense needs to be added to the criteria. Justin Peters gloved Filppula's shot and his glove was clearly inside the net when he did so. However, because the puck was concealed inside the glove, it could not be said in absolute terms whether the puck crossed. But folks, c'mon. If the puck's in the glove and the glove's over the goal line, you don't need to be Sherlock Holmes to deduce the puck is also over the goal line. There was a similar play a few years back where Shanahan concealed a puck under his glove in a game against the Rangers where the goal was also disallowed because you couldn't conclusively say where the puck was under the glove, even though the glove was completely in the net (should've been a PS for a skater covering the puck with a glove in the crease at a minimum, but I digress). The chances of this sort of scenario happening in a Stanley Cup Finals game at a critical juncture are slim, but the chance should make the league sweat a little, and if they're smart they'll create some wiggle room for the Toronto war room on these calls. Mind you, Toronto doubled down on the stupidity by saying the video conclusively proved the puck didn't cross the line tonight (it didn't), but the league office's bias again Tampa Bay (which is real) is a different issue.
6 games into this 10-game segment of the season, the Lightning already have 10 of the minimum 12 points you want out of every 10-game segment. They have a real opportunity to packrat some points in these next 4 games that can help them get through January and into the time when Stamkos returns. This is a big bonus if the Lightning can capitalize on it.
Radko Gudas had the GWG, 4 penalty minutes, 5 shots, 5 hits, and 3 blocked shots in 22:34. He atoned for his mistake on Tlusty's shorthanded goal, where he just made a poor decision to try to cross the ice to hold a puck in leading to a clean breakaway for Tlusty. And, he atoned in classic Radko Gudas style: atomize Jeff Skinner along the boards in his own end to spring a 2-on-1 and then blast a slapper past Peters with extreme velocity. I'm risking committing hockey sacrilege with this statement, but there's something reminiscent of Scott Stevens in how Gudas can change games by physically taking out your best players and his ability to chip in offensively, too.
Tyler Johnson was -1 with 1 shot and he was 31% on draws in 19:08. It wasn't for lack of trying. His line, like every other line on the Lightning, was dangerous all night long.
Alex Killorn had a helper, 3 shots, and 1 hit in 18:00. His north-south game clicks well with Filppula's four-directional game. Very well.
Ondrej Palat was -1 with 3 shots and 2 hits in 16:59. He's so crafty, his secondary nickname (besides Dr. Drej) might need to be Martha Stewart. When he has the puck, working with Marty, it's a good thing.
J.P. Cote had 1 shot, 3 hits, and 1 blocked shot in 9:28. Two of his hits were of the bone-crunching variety and he had no boo boo's in this game that I detected. I'm a little squeamish about the trainers giving him Dan Boyle's #22, but all in all I'll take what the Lightning got out of him tonight. Hopefully they won't have to ask for too much more with Eric Brewer leaving tonight's game in the Second Period with an upper body injury after his arm got wrenched awkwardly.
J.T. Brown had 2 shots and 2 hits in 12:40. His work with Kucherov and Thompson is clicking right now, too.
Nikita Kucherov had 2 shots in 15:01. He gets a breakaway in pretty much every single game and he fails to complete it in every single game. I'm beginning to think he needs to stop and fire from his spot in the high slot. That's where all 3 of his goals have come from so far, after all.
Andrej Sustr had 2 shots and 1 blocked shot in 13:33. There were moments he seemed to have a hard time keeping up with the seemingly endless supply of Staals Carolina has, as well as Skinner, inside of the zone when they were really working his stop-starts hard. That said, he made arguably the biggest shot block of the Third Period to make sure the game got to OT for Gudas' heroics.
Richard Panik was -1 with 1 shot in 9:46. He had 1 or 2 decent shifts with Pyatt, who returned tonight off IR, but honestly the Lightning had 3 lines rolling so well the extra forwards were an afterthought.

NHL Game Night: 12-19-13 Predators at LightningSubmitted by pete on December 19, 2013 - 22:46
Nashville almost got run out of the building.
Anders Lindback allowed 2 goals on 29 shots for the victory. Christmas came early as the Lightning skaters finally gave him some goal support. Ho, ho, ho!
First Period
2:25 TB Killorn (8), (Hedman, Cote)
19:06 TB St Louis (14), (Salo, Killorn)(PP)
Second Period
6:36 NSH Smith (7), (Cullen, Weber)
08:27 TB Purcell (8), (Filppula, Carle)
13:02 NSH Smith (8), (Cullen , Ellis)(PP)
13:51 TB Panik (2), (Brewer, Sustr)
Third Period
Alex Killorn, Lindback, and Valtteri Filppula were the game's three stars.
The scoreboard and shots on goal say this game was a lot closer than what the eyeball test said. The Lightning dominated territorially throughout this contest and clearly had the bulk of the scoring chances. They had so many opportunities to get a 3 goal lead and turn this into a complete squash that they just couldn't quite cash in. In the future, as they mature, they'll refine their killer instinct and get that last goal they need to put teams away early. As it is, I'm just pleased they put that steaming pile they played for 56 minutes in Long Island behind them and showed a much higher quality effort tonight.
This game marked the halfway point of the 4th 10-game segment of the Lightning's season, and they already have 8 of the minimum 12 points you want in each segment. They've got a really good opportunity to not only hit their target for this segment but also, if they keep the hammer down, to rebuild some of the insurance points they lost in the last segment when they had to burn 3 of the 4 they had earned in the first 20 games of the year. If you're wondering, the Lightning have ~20 games to get through before Steven Stamkos' rumored target to return. So the goal needs to be to continue to stay on target through about 60 games of the season when, after some time to knock off the rust, you hope Stamkos can re-add about 1 goal a game to the offense when he comes back (statistically, that's about what his absence has meant). That could make a good Lightning team a great Lightning team if they can pull it out, because it's like adding a 50-goal scorer at the trade deadline for F-R-E-E!
Radko Gudas was -1 with 4 penalty minutes, 3 shots, 4 hits, and 2 blocked shots in 17:23. As expected, his ice time went down a bit with Hedman back in the lineup. He also had to deal with the frustration of having no star forwards to drive insane tonight because Nashville doesn't have one. Zing!
Tyler Johnson had 1 shot and was 44% on draws in 20:40. His line was crazy active tonight. They did everything but light the lamp offensively.
Killorn had 1 goal and 1 assist and was +2 with 5 shots in 17:56. We can officially declare any slump he was in to be deceased, because he could've easily had another goal and he was nice and active all night long. You could see it coming once he switched back to wing. This is obviously the role he's comfortable in.
Ondrej Palat had 2 shots and 2 hits in 21:37. He's a crafty one, that Ondrej Palat. He'll take your wallet, keys, and your girl if you're not looking. He's sneaky good with and without the puck.
J.T. Brown was -1 with 1 shot and 1 hit in 12:33. He shows good chemistry with old Syracuse linemate Kucherov from time to time.
Nikita Kucherov was +1 with 3 shots on goal in 11:36. He got stopped on a breakaway in this one and was dangerous throughout the game both shooting and passing the puck. His stickhandling skill puts a tremendous amount of pressure on defenders, and will benefit his linemates even more than Kucherov at this level because teams will break down defensively trying to stop Kucherov, which will free up space for other guys. There's two other guys, Drouin and Namestnikov, waiting in the wings who also have that ability. It'll be fun. Trust me.
J.P. Cote had his first NHL point - an assist - and 2 hits in 9:43. He's 31 years old and he got his first NHL point. Nice stuff. He looked pretty poised with the puck on breakouts. Very quick and crisp moving it. He got absolutely torched by Hornqvist on a 1-on-1 play in the First Period, though, and was used very sparingly thereafter. The coaches will be easing him in slowly.
Andrej Sustr had a helper and was +1 with 1 hit in 11:02. He's another guy who should see his ice time reduced a bit with Hedman back.
Richard Panik had a goal and was +2 with 4 shots, 1 hit, and 1 blocked shot in 9:09. He's about as complicated to read as Highlights Magazine. You can tell within the first couple of shifts every night if he's got it, usually, and tonight it was obvious early he was going to do something. He got one deflection goal and nearly had another and popped Hornqvist pretty good at the benches at center ice in the Third Period. Cooper had him on late with Nashville with the 6th attacker out because I think Cooper wanted to try to get Panik another goal to really get him rolling. If he can get back on track, that'd be a big bonus for the Lightning.

Settled down, folks. Your second helping of Blue Steel is on its way.
A week after a source has told Deadline Hollywood that Stiller is working on a new script with Justin Theroux -- who plans to "immerse himself on what is current in fashion" -- Derek Zoolander himself confirmed the rumors.
"Yes, it is true," Stiller told MTV. "We're in the process of getting a script written, so it's in the early stages. But yeah, it's going to happen."
U.S. & World
As for the story, Stiller is inclined to get the old gang back together -- minus his roommates who died in that horrible gasoline fire.
"In the fashion world, if you go away for a year, it's changed -- it just happens so quickly," he said. "I think the idea in the beginning of the movie is that it's 10 years later, and Derek and Hansel [Owen Wilson's character] are literally forgotten. Nobody remembers who they are, so they have to reinvent themselves," before adding "If Will (Ferrell) says yes, he definitely has to be part of it," said the comedian. "To me, Mugatu is one of the classic screen villains of all time."

In memoriam: Gabrielle Roth
"To sweat is to pray, to make an offering of your innermost self. Sweat is holy water, prayer beads, pearls of liquid that release your past. Sweat is an ancient and universal form of self-healing, whether done in the gym, the sauna, or the sweat lodge. The more you dance, the more you sweat. The more you sweat, the more you pray. The more you pray, the closer you come to ecstasy."
-Gabrielle Roth
Dancer and healer Gabrielle Roth died last Tuesday at 71, from cancer.
I took a workshop with her in the early '80s; she was articulate, warm, luminous, funny and fierce, but it's what she did–her freeing of the dancer within everyone–that I appreciate.
Body size, age, rhythmic sense and physical limitations were simply not factors in her classes, now taught by certified instructors around the world as 5Rhythms. We moved to live music, drums and song; we sweated more than I dreamed possible. We stilled the turmoil within and were awed by what appeared. Though the dance was partnerless, I felt connected to everyone in the room.
5Rhythms felt like nothing else, though I've heard athletes who practice various sports talk about similar escape from overbusy brains, and several friends have told me of their sweat lodge visits. (A bonus: sweat benefits the skin, opening and unclogging pores.)
The broadest term for Roth's life work is ecstatic dance, also found in some religious ceremonies, folk dances and a slew of rave-ish gatherings. Common elements are that the dance is made by the dancer and is non-competitive.
I discovered that there's a 5Rhythms class in my city and plan to visit, despite a nearly thirty year pause since first experience. Besides training 5Rhythms teachers, Roth worked till her last days to bring dance to communities where it's normally not welcomed, like hospitals and prisons.
Movement was, for Gabrielle Roth, divine. She talked about the spiritual power of dance in this Huffington Post article. A nine-minute You Tube video, The Wave Dance by Gabrielle Roth, guides a viewer through the process.
She moved me.

In a move widely celebrated by activists, New York Supreme Court justices last week ordered Democrat Gov. Andrew Cuomo's administration to prove by the end of next month that its recent assault on gun rights is actually constitutional — critics and experts say it clearly violates both the U.S. and state constitutions. The extraordinary speed used to adopt the controversial legislation, which appears to have violated a separate provision in the state constitution, is also facing scrutiny from the judicial branch.
If the state government fails to prove its case on both counts in the time frame provided, the unprecedented attack on gun rights may be struck down entirely, or at least temporarily rendered void. Gun rights activists have been pursuing multiple strategies to defeat the controversial infringements on the right to keep and bear arms adopted in New York. However, attacking them in the courts is seen by activists as among the most viable, at least at this point.
The statute in question, the so-called "NY SAFE Act," purports to limit firearms to seven rounds and ban most semi-automatic weapons and standard-capacity magazines. Other unconstitutional and highly controversial provisions aim to, for example, mandate gun-owner registration with authorities while demanding government approval for virtually every firearm transfer.
Activists have already promised to defy the unconstitutional restrictions, and thousands of protesters recently converged on Albany calling on "King" Cuomo to resign or even be tried for treason owing to his blatant disregard for his oath of office and the lawless assault on the Constitution. The protests are getting bigger and louder even as the state faces an avalanche of lawsuits to overturn its lawless assault on the rights of law-abiding New Yorkers.
Amid the anti-gun rights hysteria whipped up by the increasingly discredited establishment media after the massacre of children in aConnecticut "gun-free zone," the controversial "NY SAFE Act" was rammed through the legislature with arm-twisting from Gov. Cuomo on January 15. It passed just hours after being introduced — an apparent violation of the state Constitution, which generally requires three days before legislation can be passed unless there is an emergency.
